Transferrin C Subtypes and D Variants in Chinese by Ultrathin Layer Isoelectric Focusing / 中国输血杂志

ABSTRACT

By ultrathin-layar isoelectric focusing, the transferrin (Tf) C subtypes and D variants of 474 Chinese blood donors without kinship in Chengdu were identified. The allele frequencies of Tf~(C1), Tf~(C2), Tf~(C3) and Tf~(Dchi) respectively were 0.73312, 0.24789, 0.00422 and 0.01266. In addition, two C_2DChengdu were observed, and the allele frequency of Tf DChengdu was 0.00211. This paper is the first report of Tf~c subtypes in mainland Chinese.
